All themes: new button to skin

Post by ehume »

In this build -- Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.6b) Gecko/20031209 Firebird/0.7+ -- there is a new button in the Add Bookmarks dialog. The button is skinned in the default theme, but not in an older theme I am using: it comes out as a blamk button. You theme writers may wish to look at the new button.

it is also pretty generic

the xul pulls in chrome://global/skin/arrows.css - it also has an id of #expander

so if your theme doesn't have it, grab Qute's - plus the images in global/arrows/

How about something else: Why not move the bookmarkTree itself into
the dropdown selector of the 'create in'?
Instead of combining two standard widgets in a new and strange way, we
would create a new widget.

The XUL for it is simple:
<menulist id="select-menu" oncommand="selectMenulistFolder(event);">
<menupopup>
<bookmarks-tree id="folder-tree" flex="1" type="folders"
seltype="single" persist="height" rows="10"
onselect="selectTreeFolder();"/>
</menupopup>
</menulist>
